Reincarnation story
⚠️major character deaths, mention of sexual harassment and sexual assault, rape, murder, suicide, homophobia, cutting/ self harm⚠️
It's a bit messy because it's supposed to take place in the 1900 a bit so....um...but not everything is old style because i don't think i can do that. It's hard but I'm trying.
I don't believe in reincarnation but i just really wanted to write this, so enjoy!

This story starts different from most other stories. Not at Jake or at Sunghoon. No, someone else.
Kang Younghoon, a 17 year old ice skater. The korean male worked hard for his place, he's the number 1 korean ice skater. Even world wide he's popular. After all, the 17 year old is simply perfect. His body slim and tall, face perfect, voice honey sweet and the personality of an angel
Any woman or man would fight for him. From the age of 6 he started ice skating, quickly rising in popularity. He had a happy childhood, apart from only living with his mother. His father died before Younghoon was even born.
A bubbly extroverted boy ready to conquer the ice skating world. He learned quite fast and was obedient. A kind hearted kid. During competitions he was there to win but would also cheer on others.
But something went wrong. As Younghoon entered high school he started becoming silent. His mother noticed it.
"Younghoon darling, is something wrong?" The 17 year old sighed. "The teachers...." she sat down next to him at the table. "A few of the teachers touched me. One tried to pin me on the desk when he was alone with me in class. He pulled my shirt. I'm scared mom."
"I'll get you to a new school right away!" Within a few weeks Younghoon switched schools. The ice skater was like a beat up dog, not trusting anyone anymore.
As he walked throught the hall he made eye contact with a brown haired male. Younghoon's heart skipped a beat. He never felt that before.
The guy walked up to him. Younghoon flinched slightly as the boy reached out his hand. "I'm Alex." Carefully Younghoon took his hand. "I'm Younghoon." Alex gasped. "You're the famous ice skater right?"
"Yup, that's me." The brunette just stared in awe. "Can i be your friend?" Younghoon nodded.
Over the span of a month Alex and Younghoon got extremely close. Alex was aloud to come to Younhoon's practices which was almost everyday. The Australian male was lucky to say Younghoon was his best friend. Yes, they upgraded to best friends.
The first thing Alex noticed this by was that Younghoon let him touch him. Younghoon didn't let his other friends do it. It all had to do with what happened at the other school.
"Hey...Alex....I've been thinking about something....when I'm 18 I'm going to do my military service which would mean i would be away for two years. Sure there are breaks but...i-i had a stupid question..."
"Stupid questions don't exist, tell me." Alex started at the skater and the younger felt his face heat up. "If i come back from the military....do you want to...date me?"
The Australian male was too shocked for words. "But your reputation. Korea is still homophobic." Younghoon sighed and hung his head. "But i will." The younger smiled and blushed slightly.
Younhoon's 18th birthday rolled around. The next day he would leave to serve the military. Alex came over. "Hey Hoon." The ice skater smiled and took Alex to his room. "I got you a gift."
"Really?" He handed Younhoon a small box. "Open it quickly." Carefully Younghoon opened the box. A necklace with a little glass heart with sand in it. A little metal piece had Alex's name in it. "It's so pretty."
Alex showed his. "Got us matching ones." "Wow Alex...I'm speechless." Without warning Alex kissed Younghoon. The youmger melted into the kiss. "I'll miss you." Alex mumbled. "I'll miss you too."
So the next day Alex went along with Younhoon's mom to send him off. "I'll miss you." Alex said with teary eyes. Younghoon sighed. "I'll be back Alex. Trust me."
The two years seemed to take forever. Alex looked forwards to the day of Younhoon's return. When Younghoon returned he went to Alex's apartment. "Alex~" he had used his spare key to get in.
"Younghoon!" Alex ran up to him and hugged him causing them both to fall to the floor. "I missed you so much!" Younghoon was wearing the necklace and he noticed Alex was too. Carefully Alex kissed Younghoon. "I'm keeping my promise."
Alex was studying to become a teacher while Younghoon won competitions with ice skating. He was also asked to skate for special events.
Alex moved in with Younghoon and his mother. Luckily Younhoon's mother was supportive of them dating. Their love story was honestly like a fantasy.
One day on their 5 year anniversary Younghoon got cruise tickets. "Alex~ i have a surprise." Alex looked up from his book. "Hm?" He held up the tickets and the Australian male's eyes widened. "Are you serious? How?!"
"I have to do shows on the cruise ship so i asked for an extra ticket to take you along." Younghoon smiled. "I don't know what i did to deserve you." "If it wasn't for you i would probably be dead."
Alex went quiet. "Don't kill yourself...even if i die. Oke?" Younhoon sighed. "I can't promise you that. You're the world to me. If you died i wouldn't know what to do without you."
The Australian male pulled his boyfriend in for a hug. "I love you." Younhoon smiled and burried his face into Alex's neck.
The cruise was huge. Alex's family was rich but never allowed him to spend money on 'useless thing' so he never got the chance.
They got a v.i.p cabin and treatment. "Wow, this is so cool!" Alex said as he looked around the room. Younghoon was also amazed, it was his first time too after all. Secretly the Australian male was nervous, he was planning something.
At the first show Younghoon preformed and everyone loved it. As he did his end pose he effortlessly made a heart into the ice with his skate. With his two finger he trew a flying kiss, Secretly aiming to Alex of course.
That move became Younhoon's signature move. "How did you do that?" Alex asked as they walked back to their cabin. "I honestly don't know. I just did it for you." Younghoon laughed as Alex's faces heated up and he shyly pouted.
Their last day on the cruise Alex decided to shoot his shot. As Younghoon was getting ready for the last show Alex grabbed his hand. Younghoon was still in the cabin they shared together.
"Hoon." The younger was confused. "I...know we haven't been together for that long but..." he took out the small ring box. "Yes of course Alex! " he didn't even need to ask the question, Younghoon already answered falling into Alex's arms.
So when they returned they got 'married.' They signed the papers and held a mini party to celebrate together with Younhoon's mother.
Now the two lived on their own, at 23 years old. An absolute dream come true.
A kpop group called H.O.T debuted. Both Alex and Younghoon were fan of the group. So for Alex's 33th birthday they went to a concert. They were aloud to keep their tickets and both males treasured it.
Time skip to 38 year old Alex and Younghoon.
Alex came up to Younghoon. "Younghoon...do you want to adopt kids?" "Yeah."Younghoon put down his book. "We should move to Australia, it's easier to adopt children there."
Alex said and the younger smiled. "You take care of everything, okie?" The older nodded and pecked Younhoon's lips.
The next morning Younghoon waved Alex off as he went to work. Little did Younghoon know it would be the last time he ever saw Alex alive.
In the afternoon a cop came to the house. Younghoon saw him as he was starting out the window in the kitchen. As the police man rang the doorbell Younghoon started to get worried.
"Are you Kang Younghoon?" Of course, no one knew is name was Park Younghoon because no one knew that he was married. "Yes." "I have some unfortunate news for you. You're best friend is dead."
"P-pardon?" "Alex Park was shot and killed in the city today. According to the hospital records Alex wanted us to tell you first so..." Younhoon's legs gave in. He fell to his knees. A tear dripped down his face, followed by more.
The cop kneeled down next to Younghoon. He tried to comfort him but he couldn't do anything for the sobbing male. "I'm sorry for your loss." "Tell me that's you're lying! Please!" He cried out. The cop shook his head.
"Alex, why?!" Younghoon hung his head low, tears dropping onto the floor. The love of his life, his everything was dead.
November 15th. The day of Alex's death. Younghoon sent Alex's body to be burried in Australia, Alex's wish. Younghoon also sold the house and moved in with his mother.
Younghoon's life became an absolute curse. He got raped and beaten several times. He had enough
⚠️for all my sensitive readers skip to the 💙 emoji, this is a suicide scene so...⚠️
Younghoon's mind was dark and clouded. His mother told him to hang in there but he couldn't. It was too much for him to handle. So he did what his mind came too. It was December 8th. Today the day of Alex's funeral would be.
Younghoon's mother returned from getting groceries. The house was completely quiet. "Younghoon darling, help me with the groceries please.
But she got no answers. She checked Younghoon's room and found a note on his bed. 'Dear mother, thank you for everything you did. Sorry i can't be by your side any longer. I can't live without Alex. So here is where i end it.'
She panicked and ran to the bathroom. The door wasn't locked. In the bathtub she found Younghoon. He checked his pulse but had none. Younghoon was cold and pale. "Younghoon!"
💙
But the moment Younghoon died his soul moved on into a new body. He was reborn. With much coincidence he was born into the same family, but at his aunt.
He started a new life with a new name. But be somehow had all the memories. His new name was one that would be remembered by many, but with a lot of struggles.
Park Sunghoon
Little Sunghoon was nothing like Younghoon. He wasn't as pretty, he wasn't as talented and he was shy. The extroverted Younghoon was now introverted Sunghoon.
Sunghoon didn't listen to his name at first. At young age he also had a lazy eye. His parents were angry at him. As he entered school they sent him to therapy to get him to finally listen to the name Sunghoon.
That was absolutely traumatizing. He was yelled at, hit and sometimes even beat. So he quickly learned his lesson. He was extremely happy when the therapy was over. But it left him we frequent nightmares and anxiety
But he bearly made any friends, he was too shy. And since he had no friends he didn't like to go to school and bearly did anything at school. Younghoon's mother would yell at him too sometimes, still upset at her sons loss.
Sunghoon was told to do a sport to be more active and he chose ice skating.
"Who do you think you're like or want to be like." The teacher asked. She picked Sunghoon to answer first "Kang Younghoon." The other kids laughed at him. It greatly damage Sunghoon's self esteem.
Of course he was sent to therapy to get him more social. The same traumatizing therapy. From that moment on he hid his feelings as much as possible. So his family saw him as a bit of an outgoing person who made friends.
While in reality he was dying on the inside being bullied by the people he called friends and skated against. He would never be like Younghoon, he fell too often to be like Younghoon.
His eye got fixed with surgery but Sunghoon still didn't feel more confident about himself. But he would pretend that he was.
One day he returned home and saw his aunt, or old mother. He flinched, ready to run away and cover his ears. "Sunghoon darling....I'm sorry for always yelling at you."
But then Sunghoon felt guilty. He was the reason she was left alone, no husband, no son. Nothing. Quickly the eight year old hugged her. "Here." She gave him a bag with stuff.
The family tried to convince Younghoon's mother that Sunghoon was not reincarnated Younghoon. So she put it to the test. "My stuff." He said softly looking through the bag. Clothes, pictures and other things such as the ticket and the wedding rings. Sadly the couple necklaces were still around their necks, burried deep on the ground with them.
Holding the ring in his hand a tear slipped down his face. "Alex..." it may have not been the right decision. Little Sunghoon was now stuck with more guilt, the feeling of loneliness and depression, at the age of eight. His nightmares became so much worse. He would see Alex in his dream. His dead body laying on the road. Sunghoon never mentally recovered from that nightmare.
At sixteen years old he gave up most of his ice skating dreams, even though he won medals, to become a trainee. He got accepted into bighit. Bighit was known for their girlgroups but now morely for BTS.
When Sunghoon passed the auditions he was asked to move into an apartment closer to the company. Living alone for the first time was scary. His parents, even though they weren't that happy that he dropped ice skating, paid for the apartment.
As he entered the company building he bumped onto someone. "Watch it will ya!" He yelled. Sunghoon covered his face. "I-im sorry."
They had to practice together and the other trainees seemed to judge Sunghoon. He didn't even know their names, he was beyond frustrated and upset with himself.
Just to make it worse, one of the staff members sexualy harrased Sunghoon. Running her hand up his thigh and touching his butt.
He reported it of course. Trying his best to practice the main staff member entered. "We had complaints about mrs Lee. Anyone who wants her to leave the company?"
Sunghoon stuck up his hand, as the only one. His heart sank as the other gave him a nastly look. "Get lost Park." One of them said. The other trainees scoffed or laughed.
⚠️cutting, if you can't handle it skip to 💙⚠️
A few days passed. He was in the bathroom of the company building. Carefully he took out his pocket knife carefully he cut just between his vain making sure he wouldn't bleed out.
💙
"Park!" He turned around seeing another trainee. He put the pocket knife away. "Don't say anything..." Sunghoon mumbled. And the boy didn't luckily
New trainees kept being added. One day a korean Australian trainee made it into the company. Sunghoon thought he was absolutely gorgeous. But he shook it off quickly. One trainee, who had been rude to him before started becoming a bit of a friend to him, Jay. Jay was the trainee who told him to get lost.
But Jay immediately went for the new trainee, Jake. He could speak in English with him and that was nice in his opinion. Sunghoon felt a bit pushed aside. The trainee who caught him self harming left a long while ago due to depression.
One day Sunghoon fell alseep in the practice room after he didn't sleep well for quite a long while. He started dreaming. Sunghoon basically relived Younghoon's life.
But the nightmare quickly kicked in. He saw Alex's body. On the road. Sunghoon would never describe how it looked to anyone, he was too traumatized by it himself. He would gladly spare others the details.
Someone shook him. "Hey." As he opened his eyes he saw Jake. "You're sweating and shaking like crazy, are you oke?" "Yeah, I'm fine." Jake got on Sunghoon's nerves. Why was he so close to him?
About a year later bighit announced that their current trainees would be in a survival show to determine which seven members would make the group. A lot of stuff was prepared. Not all the trainees saw each other all the time. Twenty three trainees, working against each other to make it to the second part and then battle for one of the seven spots.
Evryone was determined to make it. Sunghoon already prepared himself knowing he probably wouldn't make it.
As I-Land started all the trainees were introduced to each other. Jake once again caught Sunghoon's eye. He shook his head. A younger trainee gave him a weird look. Kim Sunwoo, introduced as Sunoo.
The rules were explained and the show started. Everything was fine, being split up to ground and I-Land.
One day all the electricity went out, including the cameras and there was a thunderstorm. Sunghoon had just made cuts, planning to hide them well. The grounders didn't go home yet. All the trainees planed to watch the lightning outside.
Sunghoon walked into the hall. He held his pocket knife, which had blood on it, in his hand. The hall had a medical kit hanging on the wall. As he stepped around the corner he saw everyone, literally all the trainees sitting in the hallway. They were waiting for him.
The cut on his face gave him away as first thing. But not all the trainees thought of that. Jay saw the blood on the knife and thought he killed someone. Sunoo gasped. "Hyung....why?" The other trainees just looked at each other. K pulled open the medical kit and grabbed bandages.
After that the trainees treated Sunghoon differently. They even went out of his way for the most part. "Hah...."he sighed as Jungwon ran past him.
But he acted like he was fine, confident in himself. Then the other trainees felt comfortable around him again. They just didn't want any blood on their hands, it would damage their reputation
At one point he noticed Jake have a rough time, mainly being sent to ground. So he stuck by Jake's side. Everyone saw Sunghoon as a bubbly, tiny bit extroverted, self confident person now. He was extremely caring towards others but had a hint of selfishness.
Sunghoon fell asleep in the practice room. As his nightmares played up he cried. Tears dripped down his face as he was violently shaking. Sweat also dripped down his forehead. He shot up. Then Jake entered.
The older looked sad. "Hey." He sat down next to Sunghoon. "Did you practice that hard? You're sweating." Sunghoon hummed. "What's up?" "Just sad." The younger ruffled Jake's hair and hugged him. "Let's practice together."
They grew closer together. But Sunghoon questioned himself. He came to the conclusion that unconsciously he was trying to replace Alex. 'If you dare break poor Jake's heart by only being by his side to replace Alex I'll slice open your troat!' He told himself.
"Wow, you look angry." Jake said hovering over Sunghoon. He let himself fall onto the younger. "Don't be angry, let's be happy." Sunghoon groaned but let out a laugh.
One day he was doing the dishes and Sunoo came up to him. "Are you close with Jake?" He nodded. "Jake is cute." Sunoo rolled his eyes. "I'm cuter."
Sunghoon let out an awkward giggle. Sunoo quickly left. That confused the older. He finished washing the dishes and dropped down on the couch.
Later he walked last the bedroom and heared the trainees talk. Quietly he listened to what they were saying.
"So you're close with Sunghoon." "Yeah." He heared Jake say. "Please take the pocket knife away from him. What if he does something?" Sunghoon felt a bit betrayed, it felt like they were using Jake against him.
"That sounds a bit unfair, just because I'm close with him i have to take his pocket knife so nothing happens. I would rather stay up all night and talk with him about how he feels then do that. And if you want someone to take the pocket knife, take if yourself."
The others said nothing. "Like... it's nice that you want no blood on your hands but it would be a bit rude for you to take away his pocket knife so you can have a flawless debut." As Jake left the room he was Sunghoon standing there.
"Oh hey." Sunghoon acted like he heared nothing. "Hey, what's up?" "You want to practice?" The younger nodded, butterflies awakened in his stomach. But he cursed those feelings. Sunghoon caught feelings way too fast, purely because he wasn't treated as lovingly and Jake treated him well
Sunghoon looked through his bag and found the school girl skirt. He smiled at himself. Younghoon had bought himself and Alex a school girl uniform as a joke. Those memories made him feel warm inside.
It was paired with the memory of him and Alex dancing in the rain. The memory was beautiful. Sunghoon still loved the rain. Yet every time as he thought about his past life it pained him.
All the trainees laughed at him, the staff too, after he said he thought he looked a bit like Younghoon. It hurt so bad and he cried himself to sleep. He regretted ending his life as Younghoon.
Jake came up to him. Sunghoon pushed the bag under the bed. "You hungry?" The younger hummed and got up. "Let's go."
Others were also in the kitchen / dining area. As Sunghoon was eating, standing, Jay came up to him. They just chatted. As Jake walked up to them again the aussie tripped right infront of Sunghoon.
He dusted off his clothes and looked Sunghoon in the eyes. "I guess i fell for you."he said. Jay burst out laughing. The others also laughed. Jake giggled so Sunghoon thought it was a joke. He laughed along, his heart hurted a tiny bit but he pushed it away.
In the evening as Sunghoon was laying in bed next to Jake the cameras went off. "I was dead serious for your information." Jake said softly. "Hm?" Sunghoon was confused.
The older turned to Sunghoon. "I was serious." He said before giving Sunghoon a peck on the nose. Then he turned his back on the younger. Sunghoon's cheeks were warm, butterflies swarmed in his stomach. He fell asleep with a smile on his face.
Surprisingly Sunghoon made it to part 2. Jake did too so that made him happy. Jake had made a special message for him saying that since he was there for Jake when he was struggling Jake would be there for him now.
That made Sunghoon happy. But he was still convinced he wouldn't make the debut team. He noticed that around then two trainees were secretly dating. Jay and Jungwon.
So Jake was convinced that he and Sunghoon could date too. So when the final came Sunghoon had decided something. If he didn't make it, he wanted to move on to his next life.
The first three who made it were Jungwon on one, Jay on two and Jake on three. It made Sunghoon anxious. The fourth place was for Ni-Ki and the fith for Heeseung.
Jake shot a panicked look at Sunghoon from the side line. "Sixth place is for.... the producers pick, Kim Sunoo!" Sunghoon felt his heart drop. There was no way he would make the final spot. Why was he so surprised? He hadn't he prepared himself to be let down?"
"The final spot is for...." Sunghoon felt light headed with the pressure. "Park Sunghoon!" The other ran up to him to hug him. It was like a weight had been liften off his shoulders. He felt relief. Jake hugged him tight.
Getting ready for debut Sunghoon noticed that the other were friendly towards him. It gave him a welcome feeling. He was free to be himself. Jake always stuck by his side, to the point that the staff tried to separate them even before debut. You could say Jakehoon was the distraction for Jay and Jungwon.
Ni-Ki also took advantage of the fact that staff was fixed on trying to separate Jakehoon as much as possible. He claimed Sunoo as his. After all, he might have been 14 but he was far from innocent.
Jake and Sunghoon were practicing together. "Bathroom break!" Jake yelled before running out. Sunghoon just laughed. As Jake left mrs Lee entered. She was still under the company.
Mrs lee pulled Sunghoon along with her, out of the practice room. With all his force Sunghoon pushed her off. "Park Sunghoon! If i see you hurt staff again I'm making sure you're pulled out of the group!" A different staff member yelled.
That made Sunghoon upset. Would no one ever believe him? It seemed like it. He just wanted to cry. Someone jumped onto his back. "Hey~" it was just Jake.
"Let's continue." Sunghoon hummed. Jake has his face in Sunghoon's neck. The younger liked that feeling. It made him feel special.
Just a day before the music video would come out Younghoon's mother passed away. Sunghoon cried, but no one understood why since he wouldn't tell them. Jake tried his best to comfort him by hugging him and bringing him sweets.
"That's the fourth bag of candy you're giving him, he could gain weight and we'll get scolded." Heeseung said as Jake looked at the bag. "It's not full, most of the candies are eaten."
"Doesn't matter." Jake pouted and put the bag on the table. "Why is he crying tho?" Sunoo let out an annoyed sigh. "His aunt died." They all turned to Sunoo. "How do you know?"
"He said Kang Younghoon was his cousin. And Younghoon's mother passed away today so his aunt died." "Oh..." Jake said. He walked up to Sunghoon who was sitting on the couch and hugged him.
With a successful debut behind them they went on. Sunghoon made sure to always cheer Jake up when he felt down. Jake admitted that Sunghoon was better in comforting people then he was.
Mrs Lee never left Sunghoon alone, but as long as the others were around she wouldn't touch him. But that couldn't stay forever.
time went on and a comeback or two later Sunghoon showed the members how to ice skate. "Tada." He learned Younghoon's signature move. "Cool!" Sunghoon weakly smiled. It had been hard the past few months.
Jake seemed to have no eyes for him anymore. He was focused on Heeseung.
Jake was extremely upset after the 'birthday surprise'. Sunghoon came to his room in the evening. "Hey." "Get out!" The younger sighed. "I know you're mad but...i got you something." "I don't want your stupid stuff! I hate you!"
Sunghoon bit his lip. "What was i supposed to do? I was told to play along." "You could've just not!" Defeated Sunghoon placed the box on the desk. "Please Jake, I'll make it up to you. Come here."Jake stood up, his eyes fire. He grabbed the box and trew it at Sunghoon's head.
"Go to your girlfriend or something!" He harshly pushed Sunghoon out the door. "What?" He mumbled confused, tears stinging in his eyes. Jay looked at him. "You think we don't know?"
"Know what?" Jay showed a picture of Mrs Lee having Sunghoon pinned to the wall. "She's not my girlfriend!" "I would say that too." Heeseung said moving his hand through his hair.
"You guys never listen to me! Do you hate me?!" Jay scoffed. "Don't raise your voice! You're childish!" Sunghoon felt memories flood back, not the good memories. He left the dorm to distract himself.
When he slept that night his nightmares were worse then ever. The rest of the maknae line decided to sleep on the couch hearing Sunghoon's cries and groans.
For a long while it went on. Jake was flirty with Heeseung and the others ignored him for the most part. Sunghoon had enough.
Jay nearly tripped over a box laying in the room he shared with Jake. "Shit! What is that." Jake look up." Sunghoon's present for my birthday." He softly mumbled. Jay picked it up and the spound of glass rattling caught the two off guard. "Well i think it's broken."
"It's been laying on the floor for weeks. It's the 8th of December Jay." Jay said nothing. "Sunghoon's birthday?" Jake took the box and opened it. "Jay....i think i messed up." "Why? Because you forgot his birthday?"
Jake showed the box. On the inside there was sand and glass pieces. "Weird gift." Jay said. "It's a glass heart Jay....i broke it...." he fished out the necklace with the little name tag on it. 'Sunghoon' it said in cursive. "PARK SUNGHOON!" They heared in the living room.
Jay and Jake ran into the living room. Sunoo was crying while Jungwon tried to comfort him. Ni-Ki was standing outside the bathroom with Sunghoon's pocket knife in his hand. Heeseung was holding Sunghoon's hands close to each other, like he was under arrest.
On his troat Sunghoon had a cut. But he said nothing. Simply avoiding everyones gaze. "What is wrong with you?!" Jay yelled. Sunghoon bit his lip hard. Jake felt extremely guilty, seeing a small heart with silver sand around Sunghoon's neck. It had 'Jake' spelled in cursive.
"You're childish Park Sunghoon!" Jay yelled, fighting back tears. Sunghoon sank to the ground, out of Heeseung's grip, and started crying. Not just crying, frantically sobbing. Jungwon ran into the bathroom and hugged Sunghoon.
But Jake pushed Jungwon aside. "Yah!" Jay pulled Jungwon towards him. Jake hugged Sunghoon. The younger just cried into Jake's shoulder. Sunoo walked towards them and Ni-ki pulled him closer.
"Never try that again...oke?" "You broke your promise." Sunghoon cried as he refused eye contact with Jake. "Why....tell me." "You said you would stay by my side when i went through hard times but you weren't there."
Jake sighed. "I'll make it up to you. Ugh...I'm so ashamed. I forgot your birthday too." Sunghoon seemed confused. "Birthday? Today is my birthday?" They all went silent. "Yeah. It's December 8th."
Ni-Ki suddenly mumbled. "It's the day Younghoon was found dead." Jake gave him an annoyed look. "Shall i treat you for dinner?" The Aussie asked and Sunghoon nodded. "Don't forget that you need to do a vlive today." Sunghoon hummed crying had taken all his energy and he just leaned on Jake's shoulder.
The older put bandages on Sunghoon's wrists and a pink bandaid on his throat. "For the vlive we'll just use makeup to cover it." Sunghoon clung to Jake like a koala and Jake couldn't help but smile.
"I'm sorry that i broke your gift." "I got a new one." Sunghoon said yawning. "You're such an angel." Jake put Sunghoon down on the couch. "No you." He replied stretching.
"I don't deserve a halo." "Well neither do i." "You cheated on Jake." Jay mumbled. Sunghoon shook his head. "The definition of cheating is sleeping with, kissing or flirting with someone other then your current significant other. But if i don't flirt back with her i don't cheat."
"You just went with your assumption." Sunoo said. Jay shot him a glare. "Don't look at me angry!" Jungwon grabbed Jay's hand. "Calm down Jay."
Sunghoon's vlive went well. As he finished Jake took him out for dinner. They walked in a comfortable silence. "Which restaurant though?" Neither Sunghoon nor Jake wore makeup. They had a mask on right now but being completely natural for a bit felt good.
"This one." "The really expensive one? Isn't it too late?" "No Hoonie, it's a 24/7 restaurant. I told you about it right?" Sunghoon hummed. It was still quite crowded. Friends joking around, couples enjoying dinner and families with older kids talking.
They ate in silence but enjoyed each others presence. "Can we order dessert too?" Jake thought for a second. "I was thinking of just getting Baskin Robins. So we can share it together, couple style. But you can have a small dessert."
Sunghoon ordered a small dessert but they ended up taking it with them. Jake ordered the Baskin Robins and then they walked home. "Hope you enjoyed your birthday dinner Hoonie." "I did." Jake still felt sorry for forgetting.
They arrived home to find Sunoo laying on the floor. "Heeseung hyung let the maknae line try alcohol. He mixed it with something and they all drank the whole thing so they're wasted." Jay mumbled not looking up from his phone.
"Were is Ni-Ki?" Jake asked seeing Jungwon laying next to Jay on the couch. "I think he fell asleep in his room. But I'm to lazy to move Sunoo to bed."
Suddenly Ni-Ki walked into the living room. "Hyung~" but Sunoo didn't answer. So the Japanese male lifted Sunoo up and took him to the bedroom. "Is Sunghoon sleeping with you tonight?" Jake nodded. "Oke, I'm sleeping in Jungwon's bed."
"Where is Heeseung though?" The door opened and Heeseung entered. "I have stuff to make the hang over a bit less." The Australian male just laughed. "You really thought it was a good idea to give them alcohol?"
"You guys drank too am i right" "wine, you can't have a fancy romantic dinner without wine." Sunghoon said and Jake smiled at him. "We got ice cream for all of you though." Jake got the small tubs out of the bag. "Sweet! Thanks." Heeseung took one.
"I want ice cream too~" Jungwon wined. Jay handed him one of the small tubs and a spoon. Ni-Ki also heared the word ice cream and took two tubs, one with mint choco. "I still don't get how Sunoo likes that stuff."
Jake pulled Sunghoon along to his room. "Please don't ruin the room!" Jay yelled. The aussie scoffed. "You ruined the room with Jungwon multiple times before. So you can say nothing."
They ate their ice cream and shared it together. It reminded Sunghoon of the time He, Younghoon, and Alex tried ice cream and lollipop flavors. Alex insisted tasting it throught Younghoon's mouth. It was messy but it was one of the best memories.
"Distracted?" Jake asked taking a bite of Sunghoon's ice cream. "Sorry." The younger mumbled a bit embarrassed. The older kissed Sunghoon making him taste the ice cream in his mouth.
Halfway Jake had a brain freeze and broke the kiss. "Cold!" He yelled frantically moving his hands. Sunghoon laughed. "It's ice cream darling, it's supposed to be cold."
Jake swallowed yhe ice cream and grabbed the spoon from one of the tubs. He scooped up a bit if ice cream and smeared it on Sunghoon's face. "Jake! It's cold!" "It's ice cream Hoonie, it's supposed to be cold." Jake said with a smirk on his face.
Sunghoon groaned. The older licked the ice cream off Sunghoon's cheek. "You taste sweet Hoonie." He said while grinning. A few drips of ice cream landed on Sunghoon's shirt. "I'm tired. Let's sleep." Sunghoon yawned getting himself comfortable. Jake cuddled up with him and they fell alseep.
The next morning Sunghoon woke up and noticed his stained shirt. "There is an ice cream stain on my shirt." Jake said nothing, he yawned and tried to keep Sunghoon in his grip. But the younger got up. "No~ don't go~" he wined.
As Sunghoon entered the living room Ni-Ki was sitting on the couch with Sunoo who gave him a small box. It was a ring. "I bought couple rings." Sunoo said with a proud grin. Jay looked Sunghoon up and down. The shirt wasn't his, it was Jake's. And the ice cream stain was quite visible.
Jay smirked. "Stop it." Jake walked into the living room and yawned. But he was shirtless. "Jake! You have no shirt on!" The aussie sighed. "It's not like they haven't seen me without shirt.
After showering Jake pulled Sunghoon back to his room and theu just slept for half of the day
A week passed. Sunghoon had to mc woth Wonyoung. She was an oke person, but she never helped clean up. Sunghoon cleaned up with the staff and always waved them goodbye. The staff really liked Sunghoon because he was so kind.
They finished for the day and Wonyoung was about to leave when mrs Lee walked up to them. She looked Wonyoung up and down and smirked. Sunghoon stood infront of her. "Don't you dare! You're not touching her! Touching me is fine but you sexualy assaulting others is where is draw the line!"
The staff around them seemed alarmed. Seemingly ashamed she quickly left. "Well...." Sunghoon mumbled. "I'm leaving. Bye!" Wonyoung left and Sunghoon helped clean up as much as he could. "Bye, see you next time." He smiled at the staff before pulling his mask up over his nose and running off.
Jungwon had called everyone to the practice room since they had to start learning for the comeback. As the instructor was explaining the choreography a bit cops entered. "We need to use this room, can you please step out for a bit?"
All confused they stepped out. Sunghoon saw one of the cops holding a security camera. The others didn't see it but Sunghoon did. Five minutes later the cops let them back in the room.
As they were practicing Sunghoon asked for a break. "Is iy urgent?" "Have to pee is urgent in this case right?" The other laughed. "Hurry then."
He ran out and to the bathroom. After finishing his business he went to wash his hands. Arms slipped around his torso. A hand went down his thigh. He pushed her away with all his might. "Leave me alone!"
"You said it was fine." She purred into his ear. "I have practice! Plus i don't like you and neither do i want to sleep with you!"
He got free and ran back to the practice room. "I'm back." "Good let's start again." Sunghoon pushed everything to the back of his mind so he could focus on practice.
The next morning as they entered the police was there again. Mrs Lee was being handcuffed. Jay looked at the others. "What's going on?" Ni-ki asked the cop. "Mrs Lee is under arrest for sexual assault and sexual harassment. Thanks to someone who pointed it out to us."
They bowed to Sunghoon. "She won't bother you any longer." They all looked at Sunghoon. "You didn't tell us?" "You told me to get lost when i did."
Jungwon was confused but it clicked in Jay and Heeseung's head. After all, they were the only two of the group who were trainees at the time. "I though you just didn't like her and though that up." Jay mumbled. "So from before debut till now? Sunghoon...." the others were too shocked for words. Jake hugged him.
They finally had their comeback. They were in the practice room bored out of their minds. "Wait, i have a gift for you!" Jake said. "My birthday was ages ago."
Jake stood up. The little glass heart with silver sand hung around his neck. He ran out. Ni-Ki tripped over Sunghoon's bag and something cracked. "No!"
Sunghoon grabbed the picture with it's now broken frame from his bag. The used a small piece of string and take to keep the ring close to the picture frame. Sunoo looked at the picture. "That's Younghoon right? Who is that?"
"It's the wedding picture. From my passed life. This is Alex. He was my husband." Jake entered again and just saw the ring. "Younghoon's wedding ring, how did you get that?"
Sunghoon looked at Jake. "How did you know? Nobody knew about Alex and i. I mean Younghoon and Alex." Jake was frozen on the spot. Out of his pocket fell a ticket. Sunghoon recognized it. " the H.O.T ticket." The corner of the ticket had a heart and an A and a Y.
"Younghoon?" "Yes?" Ni-ki looked at the others. Jake dropped the bag he was holding. "A-are you serious? You are Park Younghoon?" "Alex?" Heeseung cleared uis throat. "Your names are Sunghoon and Jake."
"The name in my past life was Younghoon." Sunghoon said. Jake jumped onto him causing Sunghoon to fall over. "I found you. I officially found you." He kissed Sunghoon. Sunghoon was overwhelmed with joy.
"You still killed yourself though." Jake huffed. "I said that it wasn't a promise. I just can't live without you." Sunghoon mumbled as Jake kissed him again. "It doesn't matter, we're together again. That's all that matters." Sunoo let out a sigh. "Love, isn't it beautiful?" He leaned on Jungwon as he stared at Jakehoon.
Ni-Ki pulled Sunoo towards him. "You want to see love?" "Ni-Ki, you're a minor." The Japanese male rolled his eyes. "Jungwon is a minor too." Jay said nothing. "In times like this i wonder what i did wrong in life." Heeseung mumbled.
"We have to preform tomorrow." He said, mainly to Jake and Sunghoon. "So we have break today~" Jake said pecking Sunghoon's lips again. "Let's just go home then, i feel so left out."
Once Younghoon and Alex, happily married yet separated by death. Now Sunghoon and Jake, members of ENHYPEN and secretly dating once again. The universe said they were just meant to be. And so it was like that.
